The actual parking space or the parking decal ?? The parking space istelf has to be marked on the ground and a sign stating that it is a handicapped area - both have to be present. The parking decal is also assigned to the handicapped drivers license - so by having a police officer run the parking decal it will state who the driver is that has been assigned that decal.

∙ 13y agoMost (all?) state laws USUALLY prohibit such "private" parking spaces on public streets in residential areas. The street belongs to ALL the taxpayers and no one person has the right to set a portion of it aside for personal use. You can petition your municipal government and MAYBE they will consider it, but I doubt it.

In a private residential parking lot with designated handicapped parking spaces can those spaces be restricted to residents only even if the guest has a handicapped placard?
Definitely yes. In many cases (such as the building I live in) the residents have to pay a monthly or yearly parking fee to the landlord or owner. Some of them may be designated handicapped parking spaces. A guest has no right to occupy the residents' paid-for parking spots. A private residential parking lot is private property, and the landlord or owner has the right to restrict parking as they see fit. A guest, even with a handicapped placard, runs the risk of having their car towed away if they park in a space reserved for residents.

Why do stores put the cart returns so far away from handicapped parking spots?
ha-ha :) I never thought about that. Maybe some non-handicapped people got mad because the handicapped have the "good" parking spots so they wanted "good" locations for the cart returns. I think they should have a cart return beside each handicapped parking spots and then the rest wherever they please between all of the other parking spaces. (Why would someone get mad over not having a "good" parking spot? so instead of walking a short distance further they steal a handicapped parking space? I don't know, we live in such an odd community.)
